Beyond Good and Evil HD Review | TechHacking.com

TechHacking.com: "Beyond Good and Evil, an action adventure game from the last console generation, was recently re-released with upgraded resolution as an Xbox Live arcade game. When it was originally released, Beyond Good and Evil was beloved by critics and by just about anyone who played it, myself included. But it gained very little attention and sold very few copies. Fans were at one point expecting a sequel, but Ubisoft never started making it, feeling that it wouldn’t make any money. This was sad, but they were right. Since then, fans of the game and the gaming press at large have made a big stink about Beyond Good and Evil being an underappreciated masterpiece. So now Ubisoft is apparently having second thoughts and is re-releasing the game to see if it can sell. They’re also probably testing the waters to see if a sequel would actually sell if they made one now. So that’s why, if you already love this game, you should get it again. For the rest of you, here’s a review."

Where's number 2?! They show a cinematic teaser and then it just falls off the edges like it never happened. I liked this game and I want to know that the sequel still exists..

Are the free Xbox Games With Gold titles for August 2016 any good?

Neil writes "We're here yet again with the latest free Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles ready to be thrust upon us. But in a period that sees few new games released, the Xbox Games With Gold scheme for August could well be the big hitting feature that Xbox One and Xbox 360 players looking for a new game rely on. That combination therefore leaves the door wide open for the scheme to deliver a cracking set of free titles."

I already have WWE but for my taste it's a great month. Not for everyone though.

lxeasy3243d ago

I like this months options, I don't any of these games.

TheUndertaker853242d ago

Positive side for you is once you get the digital version you can lose the disc plus no download wait

ULTp0ltergeist3242d ago

Last time I played a wrestling game was on Super Nintendo no lie, but with this being gold it looks really fun to try out.

cfc833243d ago

Looks like a very useful month to me. Often i don't bother, but i will this month.

LexHazard793243d ago (Edited 3243d ago )

Good for me as I've never played any of the games being offered this month.

Edit: that was a lie, I played BG&E on OGXbox.

christocolus3243d ago

Lol, I played BG&E on the original Xbox too. Such an amazing game.

Deathdeliverer3243d ago

I'm going to get some mileage out of everything but Spelunky. I've played that in so many variations. I realized when I started Spelunky World online for PS4 that I simply cannot plant another bomb without blacking out. I have not played a wrestling game since the last wwe game on PS2. I'm excited to see how far things have come. Solid month for me.

I'll take 3 of 4

I have Spelunky on ps4 already

vegasgamerdawg3249d ago

I don't understand people who don't purchase the free games anyway. You don't have to DL to your HD and you'll always have the games in your library. I never know who is going to come over and what games they'll like. I even DL the kids games for when company comes over. To each their own. ON top of that it''s BC on xbox, if you buy a Scorpio it'll be there, no reason not to purchase the game. You don't make sense.

OldGuyStillGaming3249d ago

What don't you understand?

I said I'll download 3 and no reason to download Spelunky because I already have it?

What's the point of downloading when I can fire up my ps4 to play it?

Why does it bother you that much?

TheSaint3248d ago

Because they already own it, what's difficult to understand about that?

andibandit3248d ago

Well it makes sense, if one day your xbox or PS4 breaks down you can still play the game. Another bonus is that if you decide to stop paying for psn+ and XBL, you can still play it on xb1

christocolus3249d ago (Edited 3249d ago )

Nice Selection for the month of August imo.I played BG&E back on the original Xbox and I'm not a big fan of the WWE games but I'm gonna download both anyways also I'm really eager to try out Warriors O and Spelunky.

AngelicIceDiamond3249d ago

I've heard allot from Beyond Good and Evil I'll have to try it. Warriors Orochi 3 and WWE 216 are definite downloads very hot month for me.

christocolus3249d ago

BG&E is a blast. I finished it back then and I'm looking forward to another playthrough thanks to BC & GWG. I'm eager to try out Warriors Orochi 3. I havent played a wresting game in years but I'll give WWE 2K16 a spin.

AngelicIceDiamond3249d ago

I also wanna point out 3 million downloads for The Crew. http://www.gamespot.com/art... 8 million now. Hopefully, Beyond Good And Evil gets maybe half that downloads. Im thinking the sequel could possibly get announced next year at E3 using the HD remake to garner attention and hype, but then again thats a looooong stretch. I've never played BG&E and I'm more than willing to give it a try and hopefully turn me into a hardcore fan.

Deadpooled3248d ago

WWE 2k16 is great, much better than 2k15. The Stone Cold Showcase is worth it.

PFFT3249d ago

This is their best free line up yet!

poppinslops3249d ago

Awww YEYAH!!

Just bought a month's-worth of Gold last night - mostly so I could get The Banner Saga 2, but I'm gonna be getting some serious value out of August's line-up... always meant to play Beyond Good and Evil, but kept forgetting it existed and I'll definitely check out the other games - I hear Spelunky's great and it's been well over a decade since I last dished-out a virtual smackdown!

Anyone know if Mick Foley, Mankind or Cactus Jack are still alive?

mrmonkeyhumper3249d ago

Of course....hes the GM of monday night Raw

Deadpooled3248d ago

A great Monday Night Raw judging by Monday's show after Battleground. #BalorClub!

Lukejrl3248d ago

I got to meet him! He did a show in my hometown for the fort mcmurray fires.he was awesome!

Kribwalker3249d ago

He's the new GM of Raw. I follow him on Facebook ;)

Deadpooled3248d ago

If those 8 people are disagreeing based on your question they deserve to choke on a Mandible Claw with Socko down their gullets.
